Friday, March 31: WBS 1 @ Springfield 3
Every season, there’s always one or two teams that, for whatever reason, seem to give the WBS Penguins problems for whatever reasons. WBS opened this weekend by making their final trip of the season to one such team, the Springfield Thunderbirds, who had won the previous two meetings between the teams in Springfield as well as take one out of three games at the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza during their season series. Friday’s game was no different, as the playoff-eliminated Thunderbirds used goals by Matt MacKenzie, Anthony Greco, and Kyle Rau, as well as 27 saves on 28 shots by goalie Sam Brittain, to peg back the division-leading Penguins 3-1.
